About the pattern

Soirée is a proper self-tie bow tie: two interfaced bow-and-band halves sewn, turned and joined at the back of the neck, so you tie it yourself like the real thing.

Sized by neck circumference in eight sizes (about 34 to 44 cm).

Instruction booklet: fabric amounts per size for 110 and 150 cm wide fabric, size chart, cutting layouts and 5 numbered steps
